Given a polynomial p, the degree of its Chebyshev's method Cp is determined. If p is cubic then the degree of Cp is found to be 4,6 or 7 and we investigate the dynamics of Cp in these cases. If a cubic polynomial p is unicritical or non-generic then, it is proved that the Julia set of Cp is connected. The family of all rational maps arising as the Chebyshev's method applied to a cubic polynomial which is non-unicritical and generic is parametrized by the multiplier of one of its extraneous fixed points. Denoting a member of this family with an extraneous fixed point with multiplier λ by Cλ, we have shown that the Julia set of Cλ is connected whenever λ∈ [-1,1].
